Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
It is the investigators hypothesis that the current method of evaluating vitamin D status, measuring circulating 25-hydroxy vitamin D is not providing the full metabolic picture, and is therefore inadequate. The investigators liken this concept to the evolution of cholesterol where initially, total cholesterol was the only measurement, and have since determined the importance of HDL, LDL and triglycerides in evaluating patient status. Similarly, the investigators feel measurement of other vitamin D components such as sulfated vitamin D, circulating vitamin D3 and 3-epi 25-hydroxy vitamin D will offer more comprehensive information about a patient's vitamin D status. It is our overarching hypothesis that a "vitamin D assay panel," will enhance understanding of vitamin D status. It is our expectation that the enhanced understanding based on improved measurement capability will ultimately translate to improved definition of vitamin D status and need for supplementation on an individual level.
